Yetminster is a picturesque village in Dorset, about four miles southwest of Sherborne. Set on the River Wriggle, it is built largely from warm, honey-coloured limestone that gives it a distinctive, Cotswold-like charm.

Today,

Yetminster is a quiet conservation village with a strong sense of community, offering a primary school, health centre, village store and café. Despite its rural feel, it has a small railway station on the Heart of Wessex Line, connecting it conveniently to Sherborne, Yeovil and beyond. Known for its historic architecture and long-running annual fair, Yetminster combines timeless Dorset character with practical amenities and an unhurried pace of life.
